BOOKS ABOUT COMIC BOOKS Gravett, Paul; Stanbury, Peter. Great British Comics. Aurum Press Ltd., 2006 “Great British Comic Books transports you through more than one hundred years of Britain’s bizarre weekly comics, newspapers strips, magazines and graphic novels from their secret origins to today’s cutting edge”.
Mishon, Joel; Beardwell, Ed. Cartoon Workshop: how to create humour. Collins, 2003.
“This practical, inspiring and entertaining book takes you on a fascinating journey through the process of creating cartoons. Along the way, you’ll discover how to combine the two key elements that makes a succesful cartoon – the humorous idea and the way in which it is drawn”.
Scott, McCloud. Understanding Comics: The Invisible Art. HarperCollins, 1994. A must read * * * * * “This is an exploration of the history, meaning, and art of comics and cartooning. Using comics to examine the medium itself, the author takes the form of a cartoon character and explains the structure, meaning, and appeal of comics, and provides a running analysis of comics as art, literature, and communication. He reaches back to pre-Columbus picture manuscripts and Egyptian monuments to trace the history of the comics and examines their place in today's pop culture”.
